Re: What would you like to see in a bar/restaurant
All you really need are hot scantily clad bartenders and waitresses. This is a proven formula that I wholeheartedly endorse.

Penny pints and nickel pitchers... then jack up the cover charge. Thats what they used to do at U of I back before they passed a law that made illegal the sale of booze below cost. The Rock Bottom Brewery in Arlington VA does a Wed night happy hour and has $1 pints. You cant move in theat place on $1 pint night. They move lots of food in addition to the beer sales.
cubs PS Wings are not upscale |

Re: What would you like to see in a bar/restaurant
How does a bar owner get a million dollars? Answer – He starts with 2 million.
I’ve been in the bar business for over 10 years, it’s a tough, tough racket. If you have no experience in the business (and I don’t mean “I worked as a bartender”) then don’t do it .If you want to PM me some specifics (where it will be located; sq ft, capacity, things like that) I will try to help you |

To expand on "good beer selection," to me that means having both a good selection of microbrews/imports but also the standard domestic macrobrews so your place doesn't look too snooty.

The best idea I had, was to model dishes after a couple of the las vegas hot spots. [/ QUOTE ] I'm curious, why you would do this? Is the Vegas market representative of your prospective patrons? Is your area similar to Vegas? Are you going to allow gaming and stripping in your club? |

[/ QUOTE ] This seemed to make sense to me, Vegas has arguably some of the best food in America. Why not copy off an already good thing, it really doesnt have anything to do withe gambling/stripping in Vegas anymore. To Diablo: Yes we have money, not enough yet Im sure, but we will have enough eventually. To everyone: Yes, we will have super hot cocktail waitresses, and Id like to get good, old school, bow tie wearing, listen to all your bitching, bartenders. As far as the naysayers, I have family that owns abotu 35 Italian restaurants around St. Louis (where the bar wil be), and th midwest, and my uncle (the one who owns it), has told me since I was knee high to a duck, the people who say you are not going to make it in teh restaurant business, are the failures, the ones who tried, and couldnt hack it. I have gotten a lot of negative reactino from people in the business, but hopefully with his tutelage, we will be alright. PS Chicken wings can be upscale, if you spin it right [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

Re: What would you like to see in a bar/restaurant
okay, after reading this old StLantny post I'm convinced guids is the same guy, as Stlantny stopped posting on 10/16/05 and guids registered on 10/24/05. Not that this is any significant relevation, as I'm not sure there was an overwhelmingly good reason to ban him in the first place. I'm just trying to insert some drama here.
ps. found the reason he was banned here. |

That was funny, they could have been in serious trouble after he changed his undies.
